While relaxing on the beach, he sees Yassen Gregorovich, a hired assassin, who killed his uncle. After a bomb goes off in the Pleasure’s dwelling, and injures Sabina’s father, Alex believes Yassen is clearly involved, and that he may be the intended target of the bombing.
Thus follows a series of action packed events including: Alex in the arena fighting a bull, a discovery that Damian Cray, England’s most celebrated entertainer is involved, help denied by M16, nuclear missiles, a life-size video game, and the hijacking of Air Force One. Alex is determined to stop Damian Cray and Yassen Gregorovich but comes close to losing his and Sabina’s lives. As the book ends, Yassen Gregorovich is killed but in his last words tells Alex to go to Scorpia and find his destiny. . |
